Item categories have not been initialized (BREAKING CHANGE - 7/29) #47

Closed aiolos01 closed 3 months ago

It worked the last time I run it. Now it just says that message in the log window and displays nothing.

The categories are initialized by downloading and parsing files from RePoE. The error you're getting could happen if the network is down or maybe if GitHub did not respond in time. If that's the case, this error might not happen if you try again later.

Specifically, these are the files acquisition tries to download:

I'm especially interested if those links work when you copy them into the browser, but you're still seeing this error. That could mean there is some kind of race condition, where acquisition needs to wait for those downloads before opening the main window.

(Aside: I was once trying to test acquisition on in-flight wifi, and the network lag was so terrible I disovered some other issues like this)

If I get this error again I'll check and let you know. For the time being I installed the new version and it works. Not sure if the version change helped. Thanks for adding tab delete. Such a useful feature.

If it happens again, I've been thinking about bundling those files into acquisition so we aren't relying on downloading something from GitHub. That would solve the problem, too.

I suppose this would be the best option since it doesn't rely on the existence of a github repository that belongs to someone else.
